After the festival is before the festival. Today we launch again with the first set of confirmed artists and the official pre-sale start for the XII. AMPHI FESTIVAL. Even in 2016 all remains Amphi – with optimised organisation and more than ever!

At the lastest after watching the Amphi 2015 Aftermovie (www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wRAqhxoVxs) aspiration rises: can´t we already be in July again?

+++ FIRST ARTISTS CONFIRMED FOR 2016 +++

Always highly anticipated: the festival line-up! With this first set of confirmations you may already look forward to the following artists playing at Amphi in 2016.:

EDITORS
PROJECT PITCHFORK | COVENANT
BLUTENGEL | TARJA | MONO INC. | FRONT LINE ASSEMBLY
SUICIDE COMMANDO | PETER HEPPNER | JOACHIM WITT | STAHLZEIT
MOONSPELL | NEUROTICFISH | L´ÂME IMMORTELLE | AESTHETIC PERFECTION
SOLAR FAKE | SOLITARY EXPERIMENTS | MEGAHERZ | FADERHEAD | UNZUCHT
THE BEAUTY OF GEMINA | COPPELIUS | OST+FRONT | SPETSNAZ | [X]-RX
LEBANON HANOVER | NOSFERATU | SPIRITUAL FRONT | ESCAPE WITH ROMEO
DER FLUCH | XOTOX | BLOODSUCKING ZOMBIES FROM OUTER SPACE
DIVE | ANGELS & AGONY | EWIGHEIM | WHISPERS IN THE SHADOW
CRYO | THE DEVIL & THE UNIVERSE | MANTUS | LAURA CARBONE
XMH | ONE I CINEMA+ add. artists + supporting programme 


After the weather-based cancellations of 2015 it is on NEUROTICFISH, DER FLUCH and THE DEVIL & THE UNIVERSE to catch up on their missed shows. Even [X]-RX, who were forced to play a notably shortened set under the given circumstances, will return 2016 to continue where they had to stop so abruptly.

For a decent electro-storm, we start off into the new season with SUICIDE COMMANDO, AESTHETIC PERFECTION, SOLITARY EXPERIMENTS, SOLAR FAKE, XOTOX and XMH this time. Harsh industrial edge meets mandatory electro-pop. Let´s put on the dancing shoes and rock all over the place!

After the storm comes the flood. In that respect we are happy to announce the participation of two declared experts on that subject matter and at the same time two individually unique artists by the names of PETER HEPPNER and JOACHIM WITT. True masters of their craft. Or like we say in Germany: there will be "ein GeWITTer!" ;).

Loud, honest and a little naughty are the manners of our first batch of rock based acts. With the shooting stars from UNZUCHT, our steampunk-lords COPPELIUS and the occult-rockers WHISPERS IN THE SHADOW we already cover a large stylistic variety, accompanied by another intriguing highlight with the boys from STAHLZEIT. We bet it´s going to get hot under the roof, as soon as Europe´s biggest Rammstein-Tribute prepares to transform the Lanxess Arena into an impressive fortress of flames. God knows we don´t want to be angels – fire away!

+++ PRE-SALE STARTED / EARLY-BIRD-TICKETS AVAILABLE NOW +++
